Graphic depictions of abortions have recently
appeared in grocery products in stores in Northern New
Jersey. In response, Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of
Priests for Life, today stated:
"Phenomena like this occur, and will continue to occur,
because the pro-life message is not being given a fair hearing
in society. For decades, while tens of millions of children have
been destroyed by abortion, pro-lifers have found legitimate
channels of communication in media, government, education,
and even the churches, closed in their faces. Society must
either give the pro-life message a fair hearing in normal
channels of communication, or expect to hear it through
abnormal channels."
The pro-life activities I recommend target normal
channels. However, for a person to complain that pamphlets
bother children, while not raising a word of complaint that
abortion kills children, is a extreme form of hypocrisy."
